Guys that cuss in the terminal around passengers. Talk about what ever you want as crude as you want in private. I'll listen. Easy around the ladies and the older folks.

I second this!

I third it! Let's not forget the children, as well.

Sigh, guess frat boys gotta be frat boys. That explains the backpacks, sunglasses around the back of their head, scuffed shoes, open collar with tie off or undone in the terminal. Have some pride, man!!!

Quick to paint that broad brush.

Some of the most unprofessional behavior I have seen has been by Flight Attendants on a hotel van.

Professionalism isn't always gender or job specific.

Looks like I'm good for another 19,000 posts.

Did I saw it was? Sheesh. I responded to what the original guy said about foul-mouthed pilots.

(FWIW, I've yet to see any FA sporting a backpack.....)

You must not fly that much, I see it fairly commonly going through the airport as a management puke passenger (who uses a backpack myself).

Yeah, I don't fly much.... :rolleyes:

With all due respect, who cares what a "management puke passenger" uses? We are discussing airline crew who are in uniform and are "supposed" to adhere to uniform guidelines. (If there are airlines out there that allow backpacks, shame on them, but I doubt Delta, American or United mainline does.)

Because management pukes make the rules and it is funny to watch the inane stuff that spins people like you up.

Wearing a backpack certainly doesn't make people unprofessional and if you survey the first class cabin these days 50+% of the professionals sitting in it carry one.

I won't apologize for being of a generation where class, personal pride and uniform standards actually meant something. We can't all be hipsters, thank God!
